Why Noam Chomsky is Dead Wrong About 911!
#993300">"Those who do not remember the past are condemned to relive it!"--Georges Santayana, American Philosopher
"I mean even if it [US GOVERNMENT COMPLICITY IN THE 9/11 ATTACKS] were true, which is extremely unlikely, who cares? I mean it doesn't have any significance." - Noam Chomsky
Len Hart:
Noam, I care! And I care because the very document that created the United States --the US Constitution --tells us in precise and legal language that the American people are 'sovereign'. If the US government --the 'hired hands' whom we, the people, have tasked with the day to day job of governance --are in any way complicit in the attacks of 911, then the crimes of mass murder and high treason have been perpetrated against us! If 911 was an inside job, then we have no legitimate government! I call that 'significance'!
Noam, you have, in fact, said that the crime of 911 should not be investigated. If 911 should not be investigated then no crime should be investigated. If no crime should be investigated, then the rule of law means nothing. You have granted to Bush and other known criminals and terrorists arbitrary, illogical and illegal exceptions to the rule of law. The consequences are disastrous. The 'rule of law' applies to all or it applies to none!
If you disagree with this, please explain to the American people how the exceptions are justified and upon what dubious principle they are derived? Since when and upon what hypocritical standard are the crimes of mass murder and high treason ignored?
Since when are overt criminals given a pass? A 'two tiered' system of justice is an oxymoron! And THAT is highly significant! It think it highly significant that Noam Chomsky has not said that Bush and his administration were innocent of the crime of 911! His position as I understand it is that it just doesn't matter. If any murder matters, this one matters! If any MASS murder matters, this one matters. If the Reichstag Fire mattered, 911 matters. It matters even if Bush were innocent. Even more so if he is guilty.
911 does matter! This is not merely a philosophical issue, it's a legal one. If the 911 culprits are not investigated, charged, tried and sentenced, a horrible precedent will have been set. We will have sent 'government' a signal that says: "You are no longer responsible to the electorate and the people are no longer sovereign"! It follows inexorably and logically, that if the people are no long sovereign, then the rest of the US Constitution is made invalid. If the Constitution is 'invalid', then the United States government is illegitimate, the US is not a nation, no law is valid, no tax is just, no expenditure for public purposes is legal.
Noam, if your house were burgled or set fire to, it would matter to you to ensure that the culprits are caught and brought to justice. The people of the US have sustained more egregious offences against their persons. Some three thousand in New York were murdered. The memory of these people demand that the truth of 911 be known! It matters! Millions care! I care! And so should you!
With 911 every man, woman and child in the United States were denied the benefits of legitimate government! If Bush benefited in any way from 911, it matters whether or not he was complicit.#800000"> Following 911, the Bush administration set upon a campaign consisting of aggressive war abroad and the dismantling of legitimate government at home#800000"> #800000">--both made possible upon the 911 pretext. Who cares? The living relatives of some 1.5 million Iraqis.
The fact, remains, however, that Bush might never have consolidated his coalition against Saddam had he not made the untruthful claim that Saddam had WMD. Additionally, he could never have claimed Saddam had WMD had he not been 'positioned' by the events of 911...
We would hope that the 'survivors' will make a better world but will not, cannot if 911 remains a mystery, an unsolved crime of unspeakable evil and cruelty! If not, this will all be repeated as it has, in fact, been repeated throughout history.

Chumpski
Chumpski is dead wrong. But there again the US government has no legitimacy to rule, it is all based on illusion, myths and control of the mind.
The natural condition of freedom is to be free from government intrusion and control.
Is Chompsky worth mentioning? No!
Finally! Some one is starting to get it.
@ LatinAmericanview
As long as Chumpy retains a wide following he is "worth mentioning". Failure to expose his role amounts to acceptance of his denial.

Chomsky is another sheople
How many times have you run into people who refuse to believe the 9/11 obvious??? "Oh, I don't want to think that!", "I don't want to know, it will not help me and there is nothing I can do to stop it!" My brainy sister is in this group.
These are sheople comments. I have found intellect or high IQ are irrelevant. Add Chomsky to this list of fools who choose to live in a world of make believe instead of the facts. As such, they will never understand the well hidden fundamental driving agendas of TPTB.
Too bad. I thought well of him until this POS.

Of course Chomsky matters!
Of course Chomsky matters!
Ridicule the asshole. He's a lying fuckin Zio-media-plant like:
- Alex "Death Cult" Jones
- Greg "Counterpunch" Rugburn-Cockscab,
- Bill "Bullshit Trumps the Truth" Maher
- Keith the Blithering Uberwank, and
- Howard "the Duck" Zinn
to name some of the larger segments in the entrenched, blood-sucking Zionist Tapeworm.
The whole point is control of discussion and therefore thought. That what these fucks do.
One simple and pleasant task we have is to ridicule and expose them as frequently and widely as possible. What the Fuck is NOT Obvious about That!
Anybody who claims otherwise is working exactly the same fuckin' angle as the forenamed criminal scum: the pay no attention to the evil Jews behind the curtain routine.
LAV, surely you got better things to do than that, or am I mistakent?
I encourge one and all to take a look at Leif's fine posting on overcoming the infestation

These are fine points brought up by senior members of the WUFYS
Firstly, I would concede on many points made by Fester and Atheo but the techinque of tyranny is to create a lie and then have people debate the truth value of that lie. However, I would remind my fellow activists that WUFYS members as a whole are fully aware of Noams Zionist alliance. It this not true? Is there anyone that would argue for his position? Anyone? Clearly no one believes his propaganda or am I mistaken? having said that why give him a platform? Is there anyone at WYFUS that believes that he is anything but a shill? Chomsky is dead or a least I wish he was!
Chompers..Palast..
Shit even Zinn manages to find plenty of ways to dance about the truth. I would say it has been a telling look at the bedfellows in video concerning the many circles the above crue is involved and revolves.
After the fan the blatant stink of these silver tongued mind poisoners will be of such stench they will have to become somewhat scarce to say the least.
Plenty of normal folks are going to have their way with these liars.. a way most just. a plan to work the mindfuck experts debts off is fairly well sorted.
You all have to become the harsh thinking diligent observer over the days to come.
The few with a hope please ready your medical unit and supplies for unknown actions of the users.
Those of you with need for violence Please Give it Up!
Palestine is not going to EVER fall.
The israeli is not going to be of such trouble as to endanger 97% of the OTHERS walking this rock.
Lessons WILL BE LEARNED.
You have ZERO options on avoidance or sanctuary from the word of God.

@ Latin America View
You might check with Stern Gang and Rowan of Berkeley on this question. Also bear in mind that only a tiny portion of readers contribute content or commentary. These characters (Chomsky and Zinn) retain a wide following just as Obama does. It's fascinating, yet repulsive at the same time. As far as them being worthy of critique, my answer would be that they are certainly more worthy of attention than Bush/Cheney or Sarah Palin for example.
atheo
I stand corrected.
I must say that this does not bide well for us "truth seekers." I suppose that people still voted in the US elections despite everything they know about the corrupt system. Denial it is a bitch. Do you think that these people are capable of "waking up?" Maybe those mention by you are just too stupid? I see your point- maybe your tireless effort will payoff and bring some cognition to zombies.
The problem with Chomsky
You will probably know that Chomsky is not a marxist but a self-professed anarchist. Now, marxism is primarily and indeed almost entirely about ECONOMICS.
Marxist economic theory holds that the focus of exploitation in capitalism is the labour process itself, that the extraction of the maximum of unpaid labour is the essence of capitalism, whereas the anarchists and rightists frequently claim that if it were not for 'usurious' bankers, the capitalist economy could be quite utopian, and the horrors of labour super-exploitation would not occur.
Behind this lies the fact, well-known though seldom said, that US banking is largely Jewish, whereas productive industries in the US, as elsewhere, were not, at least until they were taken over by banks.
Marx himself wrote at some length in Das Kapital about the networks of Jewish bankers which have for ywo hundred years or so enjoyed themselves bankrupting national economies for fun and profit. This is why Marx himself is sometimes dismissed by jewish rightists as an 'anti-Semite'.
Chomsky sees no economic factors at all, really, apart from the most obvious ones, which have to do with multinational companies based in the USA which demand US military support in order to continue their extraction of raw materials and agricultural crops from slave labour forces in 'less developed countries.'
If you were to press him on the role of bankers in this matter, he would probably deflect the question by claiming that a modern corporation is a fully integrated economic organism in which the finance arm and the physical production arm are co-owned by the same people, but he wouldn't get into the question of who these people are, because that would imply a certain danger of being tarred as a 'conspiracy theorist' (only one step from there to 'anti-Semite').He might even claim that thanks to pension funds and such things, 'the investor' is actually 'the public' (a common liberal claim).
I do not mean to suggest that he is consciously deceiving us by concealing and misrepresenting all this, rather that he is ideal for his role because he doesn't know it and doesn't want to know it and cannot be forced to know it against his will and interests.
and at last some actual numbers!
"In business circles, it is well known that it takes as little as 15% of a company's stock to effectively control company policy. 30% of the rich and 50% of the billionaires in the US are Jewish, whereas Jews constitute only 2.5% of the population. It's as if one family controls 30% of the 'stock' in the US government."
